Cape May to Newburgh, NY

Another perfect day aboard Bonnie Lee. We pulled out of Cape May at 8:00 this morning. The winds were calm, the seas were flat and there was very little humidity in the air. Ray and I had a beautiful ride up the Jersey coast to New York City. The New York skyline was as beautiful as I can ever remember. There were lots of small pleasure boats out in New York Harbor as we began our ride up the Hudson River.

We pulled into Riverfront Marina in Newburgh, NY tonight a few minutes after 5:00pm after cruising another 205 miles today. Ray's sister Terry met us tonight for dinner. She came with home made chocolate chip cookie for her big brother. THANK YOU TERRY!

The new transmission seems to be working perfectly and all systems have a green light. Tomorrow we run up to Coeyman's Marina where we need to have the radar removed to reduce our height enough to clear the low bridges on the Erie Canal.


Perfectly flat sea conditions coming out of Cape May this morning.
